Get To Know Me – Liebster Award and Blogger Appreciation

Recently I’ve been nominated for a few awards by different bloggers, I decided that I wanted to include all of the awards in one post rather than doing separate ones (not really sure why, just thought would be a good way of doing it).

I enjoy writing awards posts as I feel like it gives my readers a chance to learn a bit more about me and sometimes you get asked really interesting questions.

The Liebster Award

So first of all, going to start with the Liebster award. This was the first award I was nominated for when I first started my blog, you can check out that post here.

Thank you Katy for nominating me, you can check out her post here (you should definitely go check her blog out). I also got tagged by the lovely Lynsey so I’m going to answer those questions too (sorry it’s so late) her post is here.

The Rules:

1) Acknowledge the blogger you were nominated by and display the award

2) Answer all 11 questions the blogger gave you

3) Share 11 random facts about yourself

4) Nominate 5-11 other bloggers for this award and notify them of this

5) Give the nominees 11 questions to answer

My questions from Katy are:

1. Why did you start blogging? – I started reading other peoples blogs and could see how much enjoyment they got from it. I also wanted a creative outlet.

2. What inspires you to write your posts? – Random things really, every so often I just see something and it brings an idea to my mind. I usually feel inspired at very random times in the day and just jot my ideas down in a note pad.

3. Is there anything you would tell your younger self? – Try not worry as much about what other people think of you.

4. If there was anywhere you could live in the world, where would it be? – New York.

5. If you could meet a famous celebrity, who and why? – This is so hard ah. Chris Pratt, I’d be like can I please be a Guardian of the Galaxy aye.

6. Do you prefer a night in or a night out? – Night out probably.

7. Would you change anything about yourself? – Why? I wish I could have more confidence in myself, sometimes I find myself doubting myself.

8. What is your biggest achievement? – I actually have no idea.

9. What is something you couldn’t live without? – My laptop.

10. What is your favourite song? – At the moment it’s probably ‘The Other Side’ from Greatest Showman

11. What is the one piece of advice you would give to a new blogger? Don’t worry too much about stats, just write about what you love.

My questions from Lynsey:

What’s your favourite colour and why?

Reason behind the name of your blog? – It came from misheard lyrics from ‘Your Song’

What’s your favourite television program? – At the moment it would be Greek. (I love you Cappie)

This one is more of a tag than an award but it’s so cute and I think it’s a really great message.

Thank you Lise for tagging me in this. I absolutely love the idea of this one and can’t wait to pass it on. Lise actually tagged me in two awards, Blogger Appreciation and Mystery Blogger award (she did the same as me and combined them into one post, which you should check out here). I was going to do both awards but this post was getting a bit long and waffle-y so decided to just do the Blogger Appreciation.

Blogger Appreciation

The Rules:

Thank the blogger who nominated you and link back to their site

Write a paragraph of something positive about yourself

Nominate and notify as many bloggers as you wish

Use the award image

Something positive about myself:

I am a really friendly person, I always try my best to make conversation with people. I like to think that I am an accommodating person, I always try to be positive and welcoming. I will always make time to speak to people when they need me.

I nominate:

Hope you enjoyed reading a little more about me, I would absolutely love to read your tags as well (always great fun to read them). I’d love to hear what you thought about this post too (hope I didn’t ramble too much).

Enjoy reading these as you do find out a bit more about a person. Smiled when I read where you get inspiration as I am the same – even to the pen and notepad jotting it down. NYC love it and have always said even to live there 3 months I’d be happy. Enjoying getting to know you better.

Awww Grace, thank you for nominating me! I will try my hardest to get the award on my blog, thats the bit I struggle with! I really enjoyed reading this, I love these random fact type posts to get to know the person behind the blog. Love it!

Ahh I’ve only just seen my nominations, thank you so much! Such great questions too, also Maleficent is such an underrated film. The last scene was just whoa. Will definitely be doing a post on this! xx
